Hold on to your power: don't let others squash it. Hold on to your courage: don't let others preach it out of you. Hold on to your independence: don't let others scare it out of you. Author your life without guilt or shame: do not live to please others. Refuse to surrender except to your truest self and your wisest voice.- Patricia Lynn Reilly

'How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on when in your heart you begin to understand there is no going back? There are some things that time can not mend, some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold.'-Frodo
